 "Very disturbing."

"scary"

"gave me shudders"

"dark and foreboding"

"I was in Las Vegas, don't you know, waiting for 4 women in their 70s to decide which buffet and when..."

Based on the comments above, I knew I had to create a picture that was less frightening. In order to achieve this, I used Kleenex, which is far less frightening than sheep. I also picked a time during which Deb would not be in Las Vegas, so she could vote on the picture. Because of all these steps, I am confident that I have improved this photo.

Seems almost more like the peeing than the running (the one back leg look to be in the air). I'm not really into this photo, unfortunately.
